Three steps to host
Set your schedule
Host your class
Tell us about your craft, space, and ideal class size. We help you refine your listing for neighbors.
Choose the dates and times that work for you. Host weekly workshops or occasional weekend gatherings.
Show up to your space ready to teach. We handle the rest, from sign-ups to final reminders.
How it works
You send us your class details through a simple form, and we take it from there. We create your listing, set up registration, and handle secure payments for you. Once students sign up, we manage confirmations, reminders, and keep an up-to-date roster so you always know who is attending. You’ll have a clear list of enrolled students before each class, without having to track anything yourself. When class day comes, you just show up and teach.
There are no dashboards or platforms to learn, and there are no upfront costs. We take a 15% fee from each booking to cover registration, payments, reminders, and ongoing support.
You keep full control over how you run your class, including format, schedule, pricing, and capacity. We handle the logistics and help connect your class with local students in the Rockaways who are actively looking for things to do.
Why teachers choose Local Class Co
Get discovered locally
Your class is not just listed on a site. It is shared with people in the Rockaways through our local newsletter and community channels. The newsletter goes out to residents who are already interested in classes and local experiences, which helps your work stay visible beyond a single listing.
We also share classes through social media and other local channels to help increase awareness and reach.
